I keep hearing how some processors are non-destructive. I have never saved a processed image over the original. Would anyone do that? I always save it in a different folder with a different name. I can't imagine anyone wiping out the original after making some changes. "Non-destructive" seems to be a non-issue.
Totally agree with you !

...I was in a street market and wanted to try capture the colourful canvas roofs of some of the stalls. I didn't have a camera with me so whipped out my iPhone 10. I only took two shots and when I got home I downloaded them on to my PC. I was startled to see the second photo. How could this have happened??
It's nothing to do with my PC. The photo is as you see it on my iPhone.

Has it happened again, after the photo safari ?
If so something is wroung with the camera, if not maybe the camera was set in an inbetween setting just that day.

Were people hurt ? How about cars ?

I need some clarification: My understanding is that if you take the pixels dimensions, and divide by 300 that will give you the size that you can safely expect to be able to print. i.e. for example, if the size is 6000X4000, then you can print it 20"X13.3". Keeping that same ratio, can you print it larger? Say 60X39.9(or 40 for round numbers). Thinking primarily about landscape pano's.

You can use most photo manipulation programs to up the pixels. My old 2008 Photoshop CS4 does it, and as a precaution I up the pixels by 15% each step, even 10% each time helps keep the sharp focus.
When, in 2006, I bought my first pro digital 35mm camera (Fujifilm S2 Pro....6mpx) we made a 40x60" print for the lobby of an office building for my clients architect, Beyer Blinder Belle. Dugall Labs in Manhattan handled the 'interpilation" in their computer. Looked so great I took a photo of the lobby with my photo in the background.

Do you understand the reason why ProPhoto is the largest color space that no monitor or printer can reproduce ?
Probably for Lithographic reasons !
In advertising, one sends the client a TIFF file for printing reproduction with the most detail.

I recently watched this video about using a digital teleconverter. Years ago the wisdom was to Never use one. However I am now very tempted to try and set it up and use one of my Custom modes. Have any of you tried using the digital teleconverter in your camera. It will only give you a jpeg file, and can not be used for BIF shots.
This is the link to what I watched:

BTW, in the video, he speaks very quickly in a heavy English accent, sometimes difficult to understand !
I agree on two fronts: l- jpgs saved at 12 (max setting) are as good as any psd or tiff.
2- my Leica V-Lux is labeled as a all-in-one camera with 25-400mm lens. But it has a built in digital zoom extender, up to 1600mm. I prefer to use it up to 1000, when higher, you will notice the interpelation.

On that date I was at Woodstock, but was not in Woodstock as the concert was held in Bethel, NY some 40 miles southwest of Woodstock, NY.
In 1969, l was in Montreal, not Woodstock, and just started my own studio. I was too busy finding clients and shooting jobs. No time for music festivals.

This sRGB and RGB got blown out of proportion !
I inquired about a locked SD card and how to unlock it.
The first responder noticed in my screen capture the image details of jpg and RGB and everybody jumped on board the color, but not the locking mechanism.
When l was a pro shooting for advertising agencies, all NYC photographers used Adobe RGB 1998 TIFF when send digital files to their client on Madison Ave.
Since retiring, l shoot with an All-in-One Leica (no more full size Nikons or Hasselblads) and out of habit set the RGB (bigger color space).
For my color prints it works ! On the internet they look good as well.
AMEN !

Longevity also depends on how much you have used the cards.
Consider buying new cards, shooting, then dupping images to an external H.D., then saving the original cards for posterity.

Just for your interest here is a chart of the two compared; sRGB and Adobe RGB 1998.
Which has more info ?

Excellent questions. I would never edit a image on the original SD card.

This would be 2nd edit because l am think about doing a book on my "Hurried point of view" while on vacation.
Trying out the SD card was a curiosity !
